courageous concerned leadership most.

farmers...everyday folks in all walks of life...proves that he will
stand up for their real thinking and America as our next President.
A MAN WHO WILL
LEAD AMERICA TO NEW GREATNESS
Here is where
George Wallace stands on issues that concern America and Americans.
Peace through strength. Superior offensive and defensive
capabilities of our military forces second to none. Then we will
always be in a position to negotiate with our enemies.
A continuation
of a viable space program which is tied directly to national
defense.
A fair tax
system that levies taxes on the multi-million and multi-billion
dollar foundations which are now virtually tax exempt, whose
purposes are other than strictly charitable. The levying of taxes
upon the estimated 150 billion dollars' worth of church commercial
property now in competition with businesses and industries in our
free enterprise system.
A reduction in
taxes for the individual and businesses and industry to be replaced
with revenues from those now evading taxes through special laws
passed in their special interest. This will put people back to work
because the demand for consumer goods by individuals will stimulate
production activity. This should be of the highest priority. Get
people back to work.
Protection of
the Social security trust fund from other uses so that pensions can
be raised and social security taxes reduced on individuals and those
whose incomes are low.
The
discontinuance of foreign aid programs except where determined to be
in our national interest. No foreign aid to Communist countries or
those countries who aid Communists.
Continued
withdrawal from Vietnam and never again commit American troops to
fight in a no win war. No recognition of Castro Cuba.
Curtailment of
Federal spending bring about a balanced budget.
A farm program
that will not have the farmer at the bottom of the economic ladder
as he is now.
The restoration
of our maritime fleet to the position of No. 1 in the world.
A return to law
and order. Action by the Federal Government in its proper role in
cooperation with the States and political subdivisions to make it
safe to walk on the streets of the cities of our nation for the
curtailment of other criminal activities and 100% support for the
law enforcement personnel and firemen of the nation.
The appointment
of Judges to the Supreme Court who will not decree their own
political, social and economic philosophy into court-made law.
A reasonable
welfare program for those who are disabled and blind and handicapped
and for the elderly but a curtailment of welfare programs that are
designed to pay able-bodied individuals not to work.
The return to
local control of public education on a nondiscriminatory basis. A
return to freedom of choice and the neighborhood school concept. A
complete halt to involuntary busing to achieve any sort of balance
and the reopening of schools now closed under Federal Court orders,
HEW departmental regulations and/or by action of the Justice
Department where such openings are desired by the citizens and
officials of the States and/or local school districts.
